Flowering Dogwood Growth

26

Flowering dogwood trees produce white, pink or red flowers and are suitable for landscaping—planted underneath larger trees or as small stand-alone trees. They may be trained to achieve a desired shape or.to maintain heights shorter than what is normal for them.

Yearly Growth

  • According to the Arbor Day Foundation, flowering dogwoods have a medium growth rate in the range of 13 to 24 inches per year.

Maximum Size

  • Flowering dogwood trees grow to an average maximum height of 25 feet, with branches spreading out to a diameter that matches the height.

Optimum Conditions for Growth

  • To achieve maximum growth, dogwoods should be planted in acidic soil in a partly sunny location. Dogwoods should be watered at least once a week during drought conditions. Trees should be located away from areas of excessive use and parking lots.

Limiting Growth

  • Planting a dogwood tree in full sun will naturally limit its growth. Size can be controlled by careful pruning.
